Scientist-group leaders wanted for cancer vaccine and biomarker program at Rajiv Gandhi Centre for Biotechnology (RGCB)
Rajiv
Gandhi Centre for Biotechnology (RGCB)
SCIENTIST-GROUP
LEADERS WANTED FOR CANCER VACCINE AND BIOMARKER PROGRAM
Over the past several years Rajiv
Gandhi Centre for Biotechnology (RGCB) has set high standards in cancer
research. To create an environment where knowledge generated through
fundamental research gets translated to innovative new tools and products, RGCB
seeks to create a specialized ecosystem called Interdisciplinary Innovation
Center (IIC). To be developed in RGCB’s second campus, this will be a unique
knowledge centre and hub for mid & high level innovation and translation.
Till the new laboratories and support facilities are ready, start up
laboratories and support will be provided in the existing buildings. For cancer
research, RGCB has a major interdisciplinary Program of Excellence in
Translational Research (PETR) in collaboration with the Regional Cancer Centre,
which allows RGCB to carry out leading translational and clinical cancer
research.
The first phase of the RGCB-IIC
will include major programs in cancer vaccines (including immunosurveillance
against cancer, defining specific immune responses against cancer, development
of vaccine candidates & delivery systems) and development of next
generation cancer biomarkers.
There has long been significant
expectation that a successful cancer vaccine will have several benefits and
offer advantages over current routine cancer treatments such as radiation
therapy and chemotherapy. Hypothetically at least vaccines are likely to
produce fewer and less severe side effects as they speci?cally target cancer
cells only.The mandate of the RGCB cancer vaccine program will be to initiate
groundbreaking programs in Cancer Immunology with a goal to generate new
discovery into mechanisms that are involved in or regulate the anti-tumor
immune response. Such data will be translated this information into viable
immunotherapeutic and vaccines for cancer patients.
In close association with the
cancer vaccine program another key area of RGCB’s research and development
programs is to generate critical mass required to elucidate the complex task of
using large-scale genomic and proteomic analysis as a basis for rational
selection of novel cancer biomarkers. Advent of next generation sequencing
facilities as well as high end protein analysis options now means the human
genome can be sequenced in weeks rather than years and analysis of protein
finger prints using advanced mass spectrometry is easily achievable. RGCB plans
to generate genomic, epigenetic and protein data from clinically &
pathologically well characterized tumors and their metastases, and will compare
these to the basic germline genome and proteome of the patients. RGCB further
will also establish and characterize a novel series of xenograft tumor models
and cell lines derived from the same set of tumors, which will support research
on tumor biology and the early stages of biomarker qualification.
RGCB invites applications from
scientists with outstanding track records for positions of Group Leaders in the
Cancer Vaccine and Biomarker Programs (at levels E1, E2 and F). First round of
applications will close on August 31, 2012.
